Configuring PDF form fills in ScribeWare

ScribeWare can be used to fill in virtually any PDF form. This walk through will show you how to configure it for your own forms.

Overview

In this walk through, you'll learn how to configure the sections and fields in a report template to pass data into your PDF form when your report is published.

Broadly speaking, this process consists of:

1. adding chapters, sections and fields to your ScribeWare template, that match the structure and form fields you wish to fill in on your PDF

2. Determine the database name of each form field in the PDF

3. Edit the corresponding field in ScribeWare, and configure it to fill in the pdf form with that field's value.

The following pages will go over this process in detail. You may want to work through configuring your form in small chunks to get used to how it works.
